The birthday celebration includes birthday cakes placed around the map with consumable slices next to them. There are a total of three new challenges, and if you're able to complete all of them you'll get a special, birthday-themed reward item. According to Fortnite's design lead, Eric Williamson "In 5.10 Slurp will give 75 points (2hp/s), but prioritize HP first".

Thankfully, each of the challenges are fairly easy, though one of them will require you to spend a little bit of time running around the map and getting your dance on. Epic is also bringing back the popular Playground Mode on Wednesday with a bevy of additions, including the ability to switch teams in-game, increased drop rates for ammo and bounce pads, and golf carts (which now spawn every time). The community had a big complaint with the mode last time that players could edit the structures of other allied players, and this seems to have been solved this time around.

Eagle-eyed players will also notice that the Battlebus and Supply Drops have been decorated to celebrate the game.
